SAN DIEGO, Feb 8 (Bernama-BUSINESS WIRE) -- Kyriba, the global leader in cloud treasury and finance solutions, today announced it surpassed $110M in revenue in 2018, a significant milestone for SaaS technology companies, and is anticipating 40 percent growth in the new year.

Last year, Kyriba signed more than 229 new enterprise clients, including Eastman Chemical, Eisai Co., Ltd., Hitachi High-Tech, Informa, Palo Alto Networks, Peloton, Ripple Labs and many more. Kyriba is trusted by these and other major brands to seamlessly connect their disparate financial systems – banks, ERPs and other systems – so they can better mobilize and protect their global cash and liquidity.

“We are grateful to our entire community – customers, partners, employees – for helping us achieve these results, and for pushing us to innovate faster and smarter on behalf of senior finance executives looking to unlock growth and opportunity,” said Jean-Luc Robert, Chairman and CEO, Kyriba. “We are excited to continue this trend in 2019 and beyond.”

Last month, Kyriba announced it will acquire enterprise currency management leader FiREapps, to help CFOs better manage potential losses from foreign exchange (FX) exposures. The combination of the two companies will create the industry’s most robust, end-to-end solution for managing FX risk.
